Which program to play the game?

Which rating system to rate the players?

instantchess.com is the fastest chess site I know.

Fastest?  Are some chess sites actually Plague'd by lag and delay?  This would seem odd to me.  However, I'm not much of a chess guru especially regarding online chess.

My first thought was that difficulty to "cheat" on a site would be one of the top considerations too.  This is about all I can add regarding "where to play".

I mean fast as it doesn't need registration to play, though finding a specific opponent might be tricky.

We need one where you can easily find a specific opponent.

multiplayerchess.com

Reasonably easy to find a specific opponent (Just click the "Play With Your Friends" and once a game is made you'll receive an URL to send to the person you'll be playing against."

It's not the best site out there, but it's probably the fastest I know in regards to 'finding an specific opponent' (since you just need to send the URL, really.)
The site itself isn't all that, though.

No idea for rating system.

Wait where is the chess stuff set up? Is it on a different site or what?

[TribalTrouble]

I play at Chess.com no idea why you would go elsewhere. Chess.com is popular and efficient too, with moderators to boot. I'm playing a Correspondence Tourny there atm(Each player has a day to make their move). Probably better than trying to do a live tournament that not many people will have time for.  http://www.chess.com/tournament/tlchess-closed-tourney-2 the tournament I'm in. My user is 3FFA @ Chess.com

Ok, I do have an account on that site. Is this forum just to get elements players together using chess?

[TribalTrouble]

Savage we are just discussing the best implementation of the idea of making some sort of Chess Tournament thing for elements players to have fun together in battles of wits.
